I am a certified educator with four years of classroom teaching experience in Georgia and three years of dedicated online tutoring experience through Dojo Tutor. My educational background provides me with a deep understanding of both foundational pedagogy and modern learning tools. I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in Elementary Education, which equips me with expert knowledge in child development and core curriculum design. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice, giving me a strong foundation in analytical thinking and advanced writing. To further enhance my digital instruction, I am currently completing my Specialist in Education (EdS) in Instructional Technology, allowing me to create highly engaging and effective virtual learning environments.
Throughout my seven combined years in education, I have worked with a diverse range of students, primarily focusing on kindergarten through upper elementary ages. My experience spans both traditional classroom settings, where I manage group dynamics and align lessons with state standards, and intensive one-on-one virtual sessions tailored to individual student needs. This dual background allows me to easily identify a student's unique learning style and adapt my instruction accordingly, whether they are working on foundational reading, elementary mathematics, or writing skills.
My teaching philosophy centers on making learning interactive, accessible, and tailored to the individual. I utilize my training in instructional technology to bring abstract concepts to life through collaborative digital tools, ensuring that online sessions are just as dynamic as an in-person classroom. My methodology relies on breaking down complex topics into manageable, scaffolded steps and creating a supportive environment where students feel confident taking academic risks. I am passionate about helping students bridge achievement gaps, build long-term confidence, and achieve their full academic potential.
